Where is Kissinger?

I've never really been a big fan of Henry Kissinger, but many are. To me, it has always seemed like he had his nose where it didn't belong and for
far too many administrations he has wielded far more power than he should have. I always felt his vaunted policy of 'Detente' drug the Cold War out
far longer than it needed to be. And, it seemed whenever a sitting president strayed from his policy 'suggestions' things actually got done and
progress was made. Reagan is a great example of this.

Would it be nice if people were not stirring up war in the world for even a year or two. We do not need to create a society that is intigrated, just
to respect the rights of other countries to provide a decent life for their citizens. Take religion out of the warmongering stage by stopping the
bashing of other beliefs. Why do Russia and the US have so many nukes? Why do we and Russia have so much expensive war machines? Because we have
people who focus on war and hate way up in both of our societies, people who profit off of war. Keeping up with the Jone's has always been a problem
with creating superpowers, these weapons of mass destruction would not be needed if everyone just learned to get along. We do not need to convert
Russia and Russia does not need to bow to us, we can just get along, actually we are taught to fear other countries by our own governments so we will
follow their lead.

He's roughly 95yrs old now. Is he even active anymore? Here's his main company's website (Kissinger
Associates), but the "Company" section doesn't even list him as one of the executive team (I thought he was the chairman).

Either way, it's probably for the best that he's not involved. Politically speaking, I don't have any positive thoughts towards him and think he'd
ruin any possibilities for peace anyway. Plus, you know what they say: speak of him and he may appear (paraphrased, of course). So be careful what you
wish for.

Yes, I'm pretty sure this is correct. I saw his name in the invitee / attendee list. I guess my question in the OP is more of a rhetorical one. I
didn't really mean where is he physically as much as, where is he politically with respect to Trump meeting with Kim.

I have always believed, ever since the 70's, that Kissinger was a very dark force in politics, and I never really understood why people put so much
stock in him. He was flat-out dangerous from a policy perspective, and it's a wonder he didn't get us into WWIII back a long time ago.
